The Boyd Firm, PC

Reviews

Mr. Boyd fought hard for my daughter and I to ensure that she got proper treatment from her maternal family, including proper attendance at school. His services are expensive, but he and his assistant did not waste time/the retainer fee I paid and satisfactory results were met. The court system is slow, but he and Ms. Jennifer always kept me informed, while being compassionate towards me during this difficult time.
James here. I see a couple of spam/bad reviews for Mr. Boyd on here, and I wanted to set the record straight. I hired Mr. Boyd for my divorce and I am very glad I did. My ex-wife wanted ALOT from me..... she basically wanted EVERYTHING. She even acussed me of cheating on her to gain an advantage in the divorce because I travel with my job as a sales manager. I was afraid her demands would leave me in financial ruin, but Mr. Boyd told me that she would not. HE WAS RIGHT! Mr. Boyd was tough in the negotiations and my ex-wife received less than half of what she originally demanded. BOOM! I could not be happier!! It was a very good decision to hire Mr. Boyd and I recommend him. He is not cheap, that's for sure, but you get what you pay for!
Posting for a friend who currently has him as their lawyer - Do not hire this guy unless you want to waste your money. Horrible at following up and giving any sort of information. Once he has his money you will not hear from him. My friend has called multiple times asking for information or an itemized list of charges and has only been told “he’ll get back to you by the end of the week” multiple times by the secretary only to never hear from him. He also got a DUI while he was representing my friend, what lawyer does that? 0/10 more a scam artist than a lawyer, do not recommend.
I choose Mr.Boyd as my lawyer for two reasons because he is a Marine and fellow biker. I have the utmost respect from him being a Marine although not so much as a lawyer. He is not an inexpensive lawyer by far and I was not looking for inexpensive lawyer although the money I paid to him, which was a sufficient amount I do not feel like I got my money worth. During his time as my lawyer, I was not informed for a length of time on status of my divorce as one of his team members left the office although I understand employees leave but does not excuse the rest of the staff to not contact me and let me know the status of my case. Also during that time I was never notified that my original retainer amount was exhausted and that I had an outstanding balance that was due and that was first time I was notified again was when there is a balance due and never when I ask about update on my case. When I was notified I had to pay new balance that he ran up without notifying me at all within that same day! With that being said I had a choice to pay him the additional amount that I never knew about he ran up and then release him of his duties or start all over again with a new lawyer. I decided to pay him the balance and then he ask for more money to continue the case which I paid since we were this far along instead of having to start over with a new lawyer, figure this was better choice of my two options. In conclusion I feel like he never fought for me at all as I had to pay good amount of lump sum to my ex-wife now and he just took the easy way out by settling with her lawyer as he got paid the same matter what the outcome was. In my opinion he cost me a lot of money for his fees and the amount I had to pay to my ex-wife. If I had to do it all over again I would choose a different lawyer that is going to fight for you instead of just settling.
No need for details. He knows them. Long story short, he may be a Marine but he sure doesn't have the integrity of one. He withheld a part of our settlement for added expenses that didn't exist. 2 yrs later he acted like he hadn't withheld anything. He is simply not an honest man. I guess that's why he's a lawyer.
